Resolutions Presented by the U.S. Friends of Soviet People and Adopted

1: We condemn the wars of aggression and occupation carried out by U.S.
imperialism and its allies against the peoples of Iraq and Afghanistan,
and by the US client state of Israel against the Palestinian people.
These wars only serve the interests of the oil and other monopoly
corporations. We support the resistance of these peoples by any means
necessary against imperialists and their agents.

2: We condemn the open interference and threats by imperialism and its
agents against Cuba, Democratic People’s Republic of Korea, Zimbabwe,
Venezuela, Bolivia, Ecuador, Iran and all countries that are fighting
to maintain their national sovereignty, to take measures to defend
their territory against attack and to control their natural resources.
We condemn the support by IUS imperialism to reactionary governments
that are trying to repress the resistance of the peoples, such as the
Uribe government in Colombia, the Macapagal-Arroyo government in the
Philippines and the Erdogan government in Turkey/North Kurdistan.

3: We support the struggles of the peoples of Latin America against
imperialism and pro-oligarch regimes; we support the governments of
Latin American countries that are defending their sovereignty, such as
Cuba, Venezuela, Bolivia and Ecuador. The “backyard” of US imperialism
is becoming a forward area of struggle against imperialism.

4: We condemn globalization as a form of imperialism. In its fight to
control and privatize everything from communications to schools and
hospitals and even water, imperialism is condemning the workers and
oppressed peoples to a life of poverty and misery as slaves to the
multinational corporations.

5:We support the struggles of the working people in the imperialist
countries, in Western Europe, Japan, Canada, Australia and also the US
in defense if their living standards and working conditions. The
working people have been under stack by their imperialist governments
who want to take away their pension rights, social security, privatize
health care and education. These struggles are an important component
of the worldwide fight against imperialism.

6: We salute the new government of Nepal led by the Communist Party of
Nepal (Maoist) and the Constituent Assembly of Nepal, which have rid
Nepal of the hundred year old monarchy, as a first step towards a
people’s democratic republic and socialism in the roof of the world.

7: The collapse of the big mortgage and insurance companies in the U.S.
show the crisis of capitalism. Capital in the imperialist countries is
more and more based on speculation, while production is more and more
being shipped to the dependent countries. We condemn the $700 Billion
Dollar bailout to the big banks and insurance companies, which
demonstrate once again, as the Communist Manifesto stated: “The
executive of the modern state is but a committee for managing the
common affairs of the whole bourgeoisie.”

Further, we wish to pint out to the workers of the
world that Socialism already has shown its superiority over capitalism
when, while the capitalist world was suffering from the Great Economic
Depression in the 1930’s, the Socialist Soviet Union eliminated
unemployment and began building up an advanced economy in the interests
of all of the working people.

8: We condemn the recent attack by the reactionary Saakashvili regime
of Georgia, with military weapons provided by Zionist Israel, on South
Ossetia and Abkhazia. In this attack Saakashvili was acting as a puppet
of U.S. imperialism, which is surrounding Russia with states dependent
upon the U.S. and NATO. South Ossetia and Abkhazia along with other
oppressed peoples have the right to self-determination. Under the
Socialist USSR, the different nations and nationalities lived in peace
and enjoyed that right.

At the same time, we call upon all the workers and all
nationalities of Russia to give no support to the capitalist regime of
Medvedev-Putin, which is only trying to consolidate its own imperialist
interests in that region.
